MAN(I) 8/20/73 MAN(I)
NAME
man - run off section of UNIX manual
SYNOPSIS
man [ section ] [ title ... ]
DESCRIPTION
Man is a shell command file which locates and prints one or
more sections of this manual. Section is the section number
of the manual, as an Arabic not Roman numeral, and is op-
tional. Title is one or more section names; these names
bear a generally simple relation to the page captions in the
manual. If the section is missing, 1 is assumed. For exam-
ple,
man man
would reproduce this page.
FILES
/usr/man/man?/*
BUGS
The manual is supposed to be reproducible either on the pho-
totypesetter or on a typewriter. However, on a typewriter
some information is necessarily lost.
